Make an appointment

We travel to your house & provide one 2-hour training session. Most issues can be addressed during just one training session, including:

Jumping

Barking

Biting

Nipping

Puppy “Kindergarten”

Housebreaking

Leash Walking

Dog Reactivity

Anxiety

Aggression

Cost of the session is $200 in the Cleveland Metro Area (within 20 miles of Downtown, Cleveland). We do indeed travel outside that area, but require an additional $50 travel fee.

After training, you are not left on your own. It is expected that you will have questions or concerns about progress, & we encourage you to contact us so we can discuss the progress being made.

If you are in the Greater Cleveland Area and are interested in making an appointment with Darwin Dogs, we would love to work with you! Training sessions are usually scheduled for 10:00-12:00, 1:00-3:00 or 6:00-8:00 six days a week. Give us a call to learn more or to book an appointment. You can also set up your appointment or request information via email.

Unfortunately, I am not very familiar with your area, let alone dog trainers who use similar methods. However, I have designed my website to be user-friendly and to help anyone, anywhere, with behavior issues with their dog. I would strongly suggest perusing the site a little bit more. I do not hold back any knowledge no experience, as everything is written out on my page. What kind of issues are you having specifically? Perhaps I can help a little from here.

I have a two year old French Bulldog he is adorable and adorably misbehaved. I have always felt so bad for him because the Breeder gave us a puppy with Parvo who almost died. So with all that said… he does whatever …. lately just started peeing on the sofa I’m ready to scream my husband is ready to ask him to leave … we also have an extremely well behaved 11 yr old labradoodle. I need help!!! Thank you

We have a 17 week old golden retriever named Farley who is doing quite well but has some behaviors we would like to get a handle on. We are hoping that he will follow our previous golden to be a therapy dog. So, it is important that he not jump on people (he loves everyone and wants to meet everyone, but jumps). This is a particular concern because we babysit our 2 year old grandchild regularly and she is afraid of Farley. It is also important that he not grab things and currently he is essentially a vacuum cleaner for plastic and paper. We would like to eventually be able to put our wastebaskets back on the floor and put toilet paper on the holder. Finally, walking on a loose leash is something we are working on. He is doing better unless he sees a person who he just as to meet (see above). In general he is friendly and does not have much of a problem with accidents in the house.

If you could contact us either by e mail or tell us a good time to call.

I have a 3 month old German Shepard/Boxer mix male who is having separation anxiety issues. He is ok with going in his crate, but starts crying, whining and barking as soon as we leave. He is doing very well with potty training, but will have accidents in his crate while we are gone. He is doing well with sit, down, giving paw .. We are also in need of some training between him and our two other dogs. One is a 9 yo male Beagle and the other is

(sorry got cut off there) a 10 yo Female Border Collie. They are doing ok, but the Beagle is still being aggressive at times with him and it is scaring us. We love them all, and just want to find a way for them to all be ok with each other. Help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Derek –
I’m sorry you’re having problems with all of this…it sounds like you have quite the handful over there!

To start with, I would strongly recommend reading this post, which is the basics on how to Pilot your dogs. Your dogs are all asking questions, and right now, nobody is answering their questions. The article I linked can give you a good start on how to Pilot your dogs

However, due to the extreme cases you are dealing with, I would strongly recommend making an appointment. Please feel free to contact me at kerry.stack@darwindogs.org to set up your appointment. I look forward to hearing from you!

I think you mistakenly arrived at the wrong site. You are on Darwindogs.org. The site you are looking for is Darwinsdogs.org (it’s plural “Darwins”). It’s an amazing thing they are trying to accomplish and I am participating as well! Good luck with your DNA test!

We have 4 dogs, a 7 year old male pug, 7 year old male chinese crested, 5 year old female rescue( that we have had for 2 years). Lastly a 5 month old male douberman.
We need help on walks and how to handle our douberman, he is too rough with the other dogs, they are hiding under furniture from him. The douberman also counter surfs.

Hi there! I’m looking for dog training for my almost 11 week old puppy. So far, he can sit, lay down, shake, but I am having trouble leash training him and lately hes been waiting until he comes inside to poop. I was wondering what your cost is and some information on your training. Thanks!!

Hi – left you an email awhile back and either missed a reply or you didn’t see my email. I live in Lakewood and have 2 small dogs (a Cairn Terrier and a Chihuahua), plus an occasional foster dog. Would love some help with making walks more enjoyable and potty accidents. Thanks!

Hi Diane – I apologize about our missed connection, but I’m so happy you reached out again! Please give us a call or email, and let’s discuss the nature of what’s happening. Our main number is 216-548-6905, and our email is Kerry.Stack@darwindogs.org. I’m looking forward to speaking with you!
